Summary | Facebook is testing a new function that tells blind users what is depicted by an image on Facebook. The system does not need human input to recognize the content of images - it has been feed with millions of images to "learn" to recognize certain things like the outdoors and sports. This is a way to include people with visual disabilities better on social media because a lot of the activity there is visual.

Summary | One could think that artificial intelligence robots are not racist or sexist but because they learn from information circulating on the internet, they are subject to the biases as most poeple. This is why a beauty contest judged by an AI robot favored white people as more beautiful. Online job listings can also be biased based on gender so that women will not see higher-paying job listings or gender inclusive language gets lost in translation.
